  • Publication number: 20190381978
    Abstract: This vehicle control system is provided with an input monitoring unit and a determination time changing unit. When a state in which first target data is not input to a second control unit continues for a first determination time or longer, the input monitoring unit determines the first target data to be in a non-input state. When a state in which second target data is not input to the second control unit continues for a second determination time or longer, the input monitoring unit determines the second target data to be in a non-input state. When the first target data is determined to be in a non-input state, the determination time changing unit shortens the second determination time.

  • Patent number: 10452901
    Abstract: An image processing device combines an image of a medium exposed to visible light and an image of the medium exposed to ultraviolet light so that parts printed with UV ink can be easily identified. A control device (image processing device) has an image acquisition unit that drives an image sensor and acquires a first image by imaging the face of a check when exposed to a visible first light, and acquires a second image by imaging the face of the check when exposed to an ultraviolet second light; a reverse image generating unit that generates a reversed second image by reversing light and dark in the second image; and a second synthesizing unit that generates a second synthesized image by combining the first image and the reversed second image. Because the reversed second image that is the reverse of the second image becomes an image that is light overall, a drop in the luminance and a drop in the contrast of the first synthesized image can be suppressed, and parts printed with UV ink are easily discerned.

  • Publication number: 20190299786
    Abstract: A vehicle braking system is provided with: a driving motor that can apply a regenerative braking force to a wheel; a friction braking device that is operated so as to apply a friction braking force to the wheel; and a braking control device. The braking control device controls the friction braking device on the basis of the detected value of a wheel speed when the detected value of the wheel speed of the wheel based on an output signal from each of wheel speed sensors SE5-SE8 can be acquired, and, when the detected value of the wheel speed cannot be acquired, acquires the estimated value of the wheel speed of the wheel on the basis of the rotational speed of the driving motor and controls the friction braking device on the basis of the estimated value of the wheel speed.

  • Publication number: 20190299958
    Abstract: A braking control device for imparting brake fluid pressure on wheel cylinders in response to operation of a braking operation member to produce braking force includes: first and second fluid pressure units for imparting brake fluid pressure by first and second power sources respectively; and a determining device for determining whether or not operation of the first fluid pressure unit is appropriate. When the determining device determines that operation is appropriate, the first fluid pressure unit imparts brake fluid pressure based on a suitability characteristic, which is the relationship between the brake fluid pressure and the braking operation member operation amount, set in advance. The second fluid pressure unit has proximity characteristics, generally matching the suitability characteristic, and notification characteristics, different from the suitability characteristic.

  • Patent number: 10362147
    Abstract: Increasing the processing load on the server is suppressed in a network system in which response requests are intermittently transmitted from a client to a server. A network system has a client configured to transmit response requests at a specific time interval, and a server configured to send a response to the client according to a received response request. The server calculates a communication interval indicating an interval at which the client is to transmit its response request based on a factor affecting the processing load of the server, and sends communication interval information indicating the calculated communication interval to the client. The client transmits its response request at the time interval indicated by the communication interval information received from the server.

  • Publication number: 20190184953
    Abstract: A sensor monitoring device that comprises: a first controller ECA into which a detected value Smn from a sensor SMN is inputted via a first signal line LMA; a second controller ECB into which the detected value Smn is inputted via a second signal line LMB; and a communication bus CMB that transmits signals between the first controller ECA and the second controller ECB. The second controller ECB reads in the detected value Smn as a second processing value Smb and transmits the second processing value Smb to the first controller ECA via the communication bus CMB. The first controller ECA reads in the detected value Smn as a first processing value Sma, receives the second processing value Smb, and, on the basis of the first processing value Sma and the second processing value Smb, determines the suitability of the first processing value Sma.

  • Patent number: 10311331
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a feature value extractor and an image adjuster. The feature value extractor extracts feature values of a first specified image, which is an image of a region specified in advance in a first image. The image adjuster changes, in a case where the feature values of the first specified image are to be reflected in a second image, for each region of the second image, a degree to which the feature values of the first specified image are to be reflected, and adjusts an image quality of the second image.
